Est-ce que l’agriculture n’a effectivement plus de place dans les composantes des stratégies nationales de défense ? Si l’exemple européen et celui de l’OCDE nous poussent vers une réponse affirmative; le contre-exemple nous vient des Etats-Unis d’Amérique qui considèrent l’agriculture et les questions alimentaires comme faisant partie intégrante de la sécurité nationale. Le secteur alimentaire, dans la doctrine de défense américaine, ne concerne pas le seul domaine alimentaire, mais tous les domaines de la sécurité.

    Covid-19 has already put severe pressure on the global economy.

The virus is revealing something though: the ignorance of some people, who are convinced by ideas of conspiracies and plots—for example that the virus emerged from secret laboratories in Wuhan, China, or Washington D.C. Or that Bill Gates, the billionaire Microsoft and internet pioneer, planted the coronavirus to earn money by selling vaccines. Or that 5G wireless networks are responsible for the deadly ...

    Mondialisation oblige, les frontières se trouveront en tête des préoccupations mondiales en temps de pandémie. Un dilemme se pose entre : - D’une part, le souci, pour chaque pays, de se protéger contre la dissémination du virus provenant des pays les plus touchés ; - d’autre part, le souci de préserver l’ouverture aux autres Etats du monde, nécessaire à la survie de l’économie en raison de l’interdépendance accentuée par la mondialisation.

    The COVID-19 pandemic threatens to wreak more havoc in developing countries than in developed countries, because of the crumbling healthcare systems and infrastructures in the former, their inadequate budgetary resources, shallow financial systems, and weak government authority and capability. This impact has not yet shown up in cross-country data, possibly reflecting extensive under-reporting and/or less testing for COVID-19 done in developing countries. Policymakers in these count ...
